Museum of Illustration







I think that the museum was interesting as it had many different illustrations that highlighted its


 artwork through books. Advertising, animation, editorial media, fashion, and digital design. 


David Curtis mentioned that he went through many different hardships and many different 


sketches in order to complete a final on his project with the book covers he was creating. I really 


liked the different concepts he had for the book “it” as I was fascinated by all the different ideas 


he had with the cover. I liked the idea of the tutorial about how to make a paper boat 


representing the start of the book and the main character's brother on how he got into the plot. 


The drawing I really liked in the museum was a drawing that a middle schooler made of a 


pigeon looking down at the city which amazed me as it looked really good in my opinion. At the 


workshop, we had to make sketches for any book cover so I made one that comes from a 


game, but is also from a book. I could have done more and added more detail, but yet again it 


was just a sketch. In conclusion, the workshop with David Curtis was creative and somewhat 


interesting in its activities and different drawing along with its paintings.

3 Letters Final

Image
   The three letters that I have chosen for this final was Garamond, Rockwell, and Baskerville. What I did was that I drew 2 lowercase letters as white, but I colored in the Q black so it wasn’t so bland. Making the sketches was a bit easy since I was able to imagine what I wanted to do for this project, but what was hard for me to do was to draw the curves when the letter had a small curve like the Q has. But the harder letter I had to do was the letter g since drawing it in lowercase looked harder to do. What I would have changed about this was add words at the background so it could look more interesting and not so bland.

Repetition- Emily G

Image
When I was doing repetition of direction, I felt confident on this piece because I had a vision on this artwork where I was imagining a tunnel going all the way down as if the forms were getting smaller and smaller like if it was going down. I like the end results because I was able to complete what I was imagining when starting this and it was more detailed and more focused than the other finals I was doing for this assignment. What I think would have done a bit more differently was to add more detail to the corners to give it more depth and shade. I think my drawing skills have improved a little bit on this piece since due to the more advanced design and detail added into it. r

Point Line Plane by Emily Gomez

Image
This drawing was the first drawing I made was, line. I liked this first drawing when I did it in the rough drafts because it looked like a rose to me in a weird way, so I decided to add it to the published one, and what I did here was just add lines and make it go smaller as I go further into the middle of the paper. but it was a challenge to me because it didn't look like how it was in the draft which was a disappointment for me, but it was too late to change it. I think I could have changed it by fixing the lines and the ends of it. But I think it looks weird and different because of the frame since it looks different on the rough draft. This drawing shows that I've used points on this frame. When I drew this on the rough drafts it was easy for me since I just drew 3 dots and resembled a point since it was basically just 3 points. It was challenging for me since it was easy, but the only thing I didn't have to mess up was the circles since I was doing it with a sharpie. T...
